Chapter 73 Invasion In the hospitalâ¦
âYvette, itâs been hard on you. You didnât enjoy a single day of happiness with me. You even have to wo rry about these things.â
As Phoebe spoke, she shed tears. She was old and couldnât stop being sad.
âGrandma, you used to protect me. Now itâs my turn to protect you.â Yvetteâs eyes were red.
Hoffman was a useless person. He was always out. To afford Yvetteâs tuition, Phoebe picked up trash, sold snacks, and suffered a lot.
Therefore, Phoebe was sick. It was basically impossible for her to leave the hospital.
âI donât worry about anything else. Iâm just afraid that after I leave, no one will take care of you. You hav enât gotten married. Even if I die, I will not be at ease.â
Yvette wiped her tears and said, âGrandma, donât say that. You will live a long life. Besides, we have ag reed that we would go back to the Dudleyâs house and live there for a while.â
Phoebeâs cloudy eyes showed a glimmer of hope, and she murmured, âCan we go back?â
âOf course. Although Hoffman sold the house, the owner didnât live there. So I rented it. I will buy it back.â
Phoebe held Yvetteâs hand and said, âGood. Thatâs good.â
Phoebe paused and added, âYvette, I donât know if I can wait until that day. Yesterday, I dreamed of your father. He seemed to want me to see him. I estimate that I donât have much time.â
Yvette didnât want to cry in front of Phoebe, but she couldnât control her tears.
Phoebe took out a red paper bag with trembling hands and handed it to Yvette. There was a pendant,
which suggested peace.
âThis is what you wore when you were young. You can keep it with you. It can ensure your safety.â
What Phoebe said seemed to be her last words. Yvette felt very uncomfortable. She hugged Phoebe a nd wailed.
âGranny, I have married. It was just that the situation was a little complicated that I didnât tell you.â
Phoebe was shocked and asked when.
Yvette recounted the entire process in detail, only leaving the matter of the contract of the marriage beh ind.
In the end, Yvette told her grandmother, âHe is someone I have liked for a very long time. When he is d one, he will come to see you.â
When Yvette came out of the hospital, it was dark.
Yvette went straight back to Serenity Villa.
Thinking of what she said to her grandmother today, Yvette texted Lance to ask if he had arrived.
Yvette had checked the flight. Lance must have arrived.
After a long time, Lance did not reply, so Yvette fell asleep.
Just as dawn broke, her phone rang.
In a daze, Yvette picked up the call. There came Lanceâs voice.
âHoney, did I disturb your sleep?â
Lanceâs voice was clear. Through the phone, he sounded quite sweet.
âAre you done?â Yvette replied in a daze.
âYes, there are many things to do. I just checked my phone.â
The sound of walking came from the other end of the line. Yvette asked, âAre you on the way to the hotel?â
âIâm in the hotel. Do you want to stay with me?â Lance was teasing Yvette.
For some reason, Yvette felt that after the reconciliation, they felt like they were in a relationship.
Before, they missed this step, and Lance basically interacted with her in bed.
âYou will come back very soon.â
Yvette turned over as she spoke.
Lance suddenly paused for a moment before saying.
âYvette, are you seducing me?â
âWhat?â Yvette was stunned.
âLook at you. I want to fly back and have sex with you.â
Yvette was puzzled. She looked at her phone and realized that she was on a video chat with Lance.
In the video, Yvette didnât wear anything under her silk pajamas. It was obvious that Lance could see h er certain part.
They were plump and seductive.
Lance was bending his fingers to unbutton his shirt. His voice was husky. âI feel theyâve grown bigger.â
In an instant, Yvette blushed. She pulled over the thin blanket and wrapped it around herself tightly.
âOn the office that day, I felt they were a lot bigger. Did you secretly eat papaya?â Lance did not give Yv ette a chance to be shy.
Yvette thought of the day in the office. Lance lowered his head to kiss and bite her. Yvette didnât know
what to say anymore. She shouted in embarrassment, âLance!â
âYou should call me honey now,â Lance said seriously.
Of course, Yvette couldnât do that, but Lance didnât push Yvette. Instead, he said, âWait until I go back. I f you call me this way now, I wonât stand it.â
Yvette blushed and wanted to tell Lance what happened today, but the doorbell suddenly rang.
Lance walked over and exchanged a few words with the person outside. His tone became serious. Lan ce didnât put his phone beside his face, so Yvette could not hear him clearly.
Soon, Lance said, âYou can continue sleeping. I gotta go.â
Then, Lance hung up in a hurry.
Yvette could not fall asleep. She recalled that someone on the other end of the line seemed to have told Lance that a lady was looking for him.
Although Yvette did not hear it clearly, she could not suppress the uneasiness.
After Yvette lay on the bed for a while, Ellen called to invite her for lunch.
When Yvette arrived at the restaurant, she was stunned at the sight of Ellen. Ellenâs waistâ
length hair was cut to the back of her ear.
âDid you cut your hair?â
Ellen touched her short hair and asked, âIs it not good?â
âIt feels different from before, but it looks good.â
Ellen was a woman of great beauty. She was goodâ
looking with long hair, and now she was a wild beauty with short hair.
It seemed to be especially difficult to conquer Ellen.
âWhatâs wrong?â Yvette felt that Ellen was depressed and asked.
âItâs nothing. Someone said that he would marry me when my hair reached my waist. Now that no one
wants to marry me, then I just cut my hair off,â Ellen smiled..
Yvette knew who the person Ellen was talking about was and didnât know how to comfort her, so Yvette didnât say anything.
âDid Lance go abroad?â Ellen suddenly asked.
âYes, how did you know?â Yvette was startled.
Ellen had been busy dealing with Jamie recently, so she had no idea that Yvette and Lance had made up.
Ellen said, âI saw him in Yazminâs post.â
4 Yvetteâs heart seemed to fall to the ground.
âWhere?â Yvette forced herself to calm down.
Ellen turned on her phone and flipped to the main page of Yazminâs Twitter. There was a selfie of Yezmi n, who wore a lightâcolored beret, looking very good.
Yazmin even wrote, âI feel so happy that he comes to pick me up.â
Yazmin even showed her location overseas.
The release time was thirty minutes after Lance hung up.
Yvette saw Lance holding Yazminâs suitcase at a glance. Although only his side face was captured, it w as not difficult to recognize him.
There were comments from people who knew them. They said that Yvette and Lance were in a good relationship.
Yazmin replied with a smiley face.
In the eyes of their common friends, Yazmin and Lance were a couple.
Yvette was speechless, and her heart ached as if it was being stabbed by a knife.
Ellen saw that Yvette didnât look good and knew that Yvette was not comfortable, but Ellen thought it wa better to break it off now and save Yvette the pain.
Ellen was silent for a while and said, âYvette, do you know what is the most difficult thing to break throug happens to Yazmin, you have to give way. Lance had Yazmin in his heart. You can only be her alternative.â
It was just like how Jamie treated Fiona. Even though Fionaâs reputation was terrible, he was willing to s It was all because Fiona was Jamieâs first love.
After dinner, Yvette had a driver to send her off, and Ellen drove by herself.
Ellen just took two steps and realized that she hadnât taken her bag, so she went back to get her bag an to the bathroom.
However, Ellen soon found a familiar figure in front of her.
Jamie took Fiona to eat here. They seemed to have just arrived and were ready to go to the private room As they walked towards Ellen, Ellen lowered her head and was a little nervous. She almost bumped into âBe careful.â Jamieâs elegant voice rang in Ellenâs ears.
Jamie held onto Ellenâs arm with his large palm. He rubbed her arm with his thumb and then released it.
Ellenâs heart beat wildly. She did not know what Jamie meant by touching her in front of his fiancée.
Ellen forced herself to calm down and said, âThank you.â
Then Ellen turned around and went to the bathroom.
Fiona looked at Jamieâs eyes and then looked at Ellen. She said thoughtfully, âAll men like to play with u Fionaâs voice was not too loud, just enough for Ellen to hear.
Immediately, Ellen stopped in her tracks, and the color of her little face gradually faded.
Ellenâs short hair was indeed refreshing.
Jamie looked away and said lightly, âMen like to play coquettish and cheap women.â
Jamieâs voice was elegant, but it was like a slap on Ellenâs face.
Fiona had a bright smile on her face and did not say anything else. She took Jamie upstairs.
In the bathroom, Ellen patted her face with cold water. Hot tears flowed out of her eyes.
Ellen was not sad. She just felt that she had disgraced the Robbins family. In her circle, rumor had it tha It was said that as long as one was rich, Ellen would be good at playing games.
The door was pushed open with a creak.
Ellen quickly wiped the corners of her eyes and picked up her bag, ready to leave.
Ellen turned her head and saw a handsome face. She was so shocked that she could not move at all.
Jamieâs eyes were obviously aggressive. Ellen panicked subconsciously. Her mind went blank, and she to run away.
However, Jamie grabbed Ellenâs wrist and then locked the door.
âWhat are you going to do?â Ellenâs eyes were full of panic.
Jamie raised his eyebrows and pushed Ellen to the sink.
Jamie raised Ellenâs hands, and his eyes were full of contempt. âYou bumped into me. Arenât you just wa
